Nine Onions (Upside Down Edit)

Nine Onions (Upside Down Edit)
An old photograph which I have attempted to improve by turning it upside down and undertaking some judicious editing.
I used an old Micro-Nikkor 55mm f/3.5 lens on a Nikon D2Xs. It is light in weight and uncommonly sharp, even in this age of excellence in optical instruments. Its widest aperture is only f/3.5 and with the D2Xs being hopeless beyond 400 ISO, good light or flash is necessary. Since I hate using flash, I seldom use the lens. That is a pity.

Thank you! I made a coq au vin today with two of the brown onions. It was a great success.

For a panicky moment I thought the onions had gone. I’ve found an old recipe for onion soup, which I shall prepare tonight.
